Lake Mead's Elevation is at 1,108 ft right now (June 13th, 2013).

The lake is down 14 feet since March 2013.


There's a 1 in 3 chance that Lake Mead will hit 1,075 ft elevation within the next 3 years.

At 1,050 ft, hydroelectric power is not possible.

Heard from park service the have a leak in one of the bypass tunnels (prob Quaggas) and want to drop the lake 15ft to fix it.

Also the lake will drop during the summer, so looks gloomy.
